I don't mind your *talking* about your favorite YouTube channels on fandom secrets, but if you're really posting about them to try to promote them, that seems kind of inappropriate to me.

Eh. Lots of people make secrets about fandoms they enjoy and one of their hopes is to find other people who enjoy them or interest other people. I think it's fine.

"One of their hopes" is not "I'm regularly putting this in front of your face because my fandom needs more warm bodies."

NAYRT but... if the secrets haven't been so blatantly promotional that no one has commented/complained, I feel like it's fine?

(Anonymous) 2023-07-06 10:25 pm (UTC)(link)
nayrt but +1

I mean yeah, if you're that determined to interpret OP's actions in the worst light possible. But why?

(Anonymous) 2023-07-08 05:28 am (UTC)(link)
"Why" would be because this secret is entirely about promoting YT channels to strangers as an alternative to annoying their spouse.

I'd been wondering why we were getting secret after secret about YouTube channels, when a lot of it doesn't have any obvious connection to fandom. Most of these YT secrets make no sense to me, on top of being about something on a platform I avoid.

I'd been guessing the people interacting with this (whatever it is) weren't a large/organized enough group to squee or gripe in their own comm. But I'm not amused that it's actually someone wishing they weren't so alone in their viewing habits, and dressing that up in the garb of Fandom!Secrets essentially just because people congregate here.

Not sure why it seems reasonable to you, TBH.

when a lot of it doesn't have any obvious connection to fandom

There may not be obvious connections on FandomSecrets, but at least on the YouTube channels I follow a lot of comments sections reflect organic fandoms that have grown out of recurring themes/gags in the creators' videos. I'd say that kind of activity is very much a fandom.

so like...are you good?

(Anonymous) 2023-07-06 10:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Disagree.

(Anonymous) 2023-07-06 10:46 pm (UTC)(link)
As long as they are genuine secrets/feelings/opinions then I'm okay with it. Just flat out making shit up to get the names out there though would be my line.

(Anonymous) 2023-07-08 05:32 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that would bother me more than this does.

(Anonymous) 2023-07-06 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
oh no, show me where on the doll the secret touched you

(Anonymous) 2023-07-08 05:30 am (UTC)(link)
How about you show me where anyone agreed that secrets are supposed to be above criticism.

(Anonymous) 2023-07-07 06:17 am (UTC)(link)
Man, go touch some grass or promote your own fandom like a normal person

(Anonymous) 2023-07-08 05:31 am (UTC)(link)
I'm finding the dogpile of comments coming to defend this secret rather fascinating and implausible.
